Importing and Saving Manga
Addresses user stories #1, #3, #8.
Import
There should be 2 ways to import manga: from files on the user's computer, and directly over the internet (see p2p-sharing and site-crawling). This feature document only describes the local import.
The user should be able to navigate to the files he would like to import, using their operating system's file explorer.
A point of discussion is how the application should interpret the selected files/folders:
- One folder is one work?
- What about sub-folders?
I think a folder without sub-folders and files inside should be considered one work. If it has both, it is one work and the sub-folder should be explored further. If it has only sub-folders, it is not a work, and the sub-folders are to be explored. If it has no content, nothing happens.
Multiple folders should be selectable and importable at the same time.
Saving
The manga should then be saved into a library folder defined by the user in the following format:
<author> > <title> > *files here*
This saving strategy should be extendable/configurable in the future.
File Types
Since the application runs inside chromium, every file type supported by the browser should also be supported by the application: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Media/Formats
This also includes video and audio files.
